This property is in a spectacular location overlooking the magnificent Atlantic Ocean. You have to coordinate the resorts ATV transportation but it's we'll with the effort. This is a perfect place to escape so stay at least a few days if not more. You should stop at the grocery store and be fully stocked for meals although you're greeted with homemade bread, local cheese and the owners produced wine.

Kuanza is absolutely gorgeous. My only regret is that we didn't get their famous baked bread in the morning. I was looking forward to it!

No entiendo cómo este alojamiento tiene una puntuación tan alta, porque nuestra experiencia estuvo muy lejos de lo que esperábamos. - No puedes llegar con tu coche hasta el alojamiento. Hay que dejarlo aparcado a unos 2,5 km y llamar a un quad-taxi para llegar. Es un trayecto de montaña, con su pista de tierra y subidas y bajadas. - Los desplazamientos en quad no son gratuitos. Solo están incluidos el trayecto de llegada y el de salida; cualquier viaje adicional tiene un coste. - No hay supermercados ni servicios cerca, por lo que es imprescindible hacer una compra grande antes de llegar. Si olvidas algo, recuperarlo supone tiempo y dinero. - Las fotografías pueden dar la impresión de que se reserva una casa independiente, pero no fue nuestro caso. Nos asignaron un apartamento sin terraza, con vecinos en la planta inferior. - El mobiliario nos pareció inferior a lo esperado para el precio. Éramos cuatro adultos y un niño y el alojamiento disponía de una cama de matrimonio, una litera y un sofá cama. Tanto la litera como el sofá cama resultaron incómodos, y la litera no coincidía con la mostrada en las fotografías del anuncio. - La piscina es bastante más pequeña de lo que aparenta en las imágenes promocionales. Tiene 50cm de profundidad. En conjunto, la sensación fue que el alojamiento no se correspondía con las expectativas creadas por el anuncio ni con el precio pagado. Lo mejor es su ubicación cerca de la costa, pero tiene graves limitaciones.
